Disclosed is a non-woven reinforced laminate having an upper and lower web with two layers of fibers therebetween, wherein the fibers are substantially parallel within each of the layers and substantially perpendicular to the fibers in the adjacent and a method and apparatus for forming the laminate which include driving a web material along a predetermined route, applying an adhesive to the web in a predetermined pattern, depositing portion of fibers onto the adhesive, causing the remaining free portions of the fibers to stand upwardly from the web, deflecting the upstanding free portions to the surface of the web at an angle relative to the route direction, and laminating the web having the deflected fibers to a second web similarly processed whereby the fibers of the adjoining layers are substantially perpendicularly disposed with respect to each other.
